Joe Biden says he supports bill to ban TikTok from US app stores

President backs legislation a day after his predecessor Donald Trump came out against it

President Joe Biden said he would sign a bill working its way through Congress that would ban US app stores from carrying TikTok unless its Chinese owner divests the popular video-sharing social media platform.
